Hi guys and girls, just came across this and seems like you guys have a great thing going! My gf and I just started playing (41-45k PR atm) and would love to get involved in an active troop like yours. We try to do as much of the event stuff as possible and are currently working on leveling up our passives.

These are best to do in a Group, not with the Troop. Mainly because, you will Be in a Group of up to 25 other players dedicated to beating it as soon as possible, as opposed to a few troop members. The playstyle however is the same as below.

Troop Raids:

In Troop Raids and in Halls, it is best to attack with 1 energy at a time. This is because you don't want to waste a bunch of energy on one shot when another player might beat the boss while you are playing, hence you just wasted a bunch of energy. Always save 1 energy in Halls and raids, you never know how fast a boss might fall, you need an energy on hand to contribute to the next boss.
It is important to contribute a minimum of 1 energy per boss to get prizes. As per Penny, it doesn't matter if you attack once or 5 times, you just need to attack once to get the prize.

I'm not a part of your troop, but I like how you're using a SubReddit as a method of communication. I run a troop of 250-500k PR players, we're active in events (placing Super tier ~20% of the time) and raiding LT.

I personally have much experience with this game that I'm happy to share. I'm not here to advertise my troop at all. I just wanna be friendly and answer any questions anyone has. Such as:

Strategies for doing well in events

How to manage troop schedules

How to effectively recruit active members

and whatever other questions you have!

Consider me a mentor :) Though I won't see any questions unless they're posted on this thread.

For BR, first off, go to Troop Hall and talk to Phil Nye. Set a defensive team.

I recommend starting off hitting the guy with highest trophy payout that you can beat with all your energy. Then come back before the hour, talk to Sarge to refresh the enemies, then attack again. I say to attack with all energy because every time you attack, the trophy payout decreases. So might as well take the most you can all at once.

When you start getting those 5 energy rewards in your inbox, LEAVE THEM THERE. Only cash them in as you need them. For example, I will go to BR with 5 energy, I will cash in one 5 energy reward and attack for x10. Then wait for my refill and do it again. If I still have energy in my inbox I will leave it till next battle.

The problem with using 20, 30, 40 energy all in one battle is, you might get a ton of trophies which is not bad, but you also are bumping the troop up the leaderboard to a level that matches us against troops we can't beat. Then it takes a couple losses to fit back into our comfort zone. There is a triple trophy payout for winning. So as a Troop we will do better if all players get triple trophies instead of one guy doing a ton in one match, then losing the next three.

Anyone who wishes to trade must PM that Troop member to work out details, since sharing personal info like Facebook is forbidden.

After the trade, the OP (Original Poster) must delete the post so there is no confusion.

You can also use http://bcrank.com to facilitate that trade, as it would give you a trade history with good history. Usefull in future non Troop trades.

Here is the Battle Camp help text on trading.👇

......................................

You can trade monsters with other players via our support site. This can be a very useful way to get ingredients for evolution, get the passives or actives you want or to match zodiacs.

To trade, go to: support.pennypop.com

Then log in with the facebook account attached to your Battle Camp user and select the Trade link at the top of the page.

Once there, you and your friend can see each other’s inventories. Select the monster you want from your friend’s inventory and then the monster from your own you would like to offer in exchange. Then, once your friend approves your proposal, the trade will be complete.

You can make two trades per day, but you must exit the game first before you can trade.

There are other restrictions to trading as well. You can only trade with people who’ve been Battle Camp Pals for two weeks or more.

You can also only trade for a monster of the same rarity (so epics for epics, commons for commons). And each rarity requires you to reach a certain level first. See the table below:

In Troop Wars we fight against another Troops, Troop Pet.
The pet usually doesn't do much damage so no need to have much as far as healing, regen, barrier, etc...
After defeating the enemies Troop Pet, we attack their Flag. Attacking an enemies Flag will yield double trophies.

This one is pretty simple. Attack with 5 or 10 energy (whatever you have), then wait 50 minutes for a refill and attack once more before the hour is up.

Remember, leaders will activate their bonuses in the first 15 minutes or last 15 minutes of the battle depending on availability. So to maximize your damage output and trophy intake, attck in the first 15 or last 15, or both.

In Dominion, we attack 5 towers. The team to attack a tower first will own it (don't understand this yet), and start earning trophies.

The team that does the most damage to a tower will control it and start earning trophies. If a troop has 3 or more towers, it will earn double trophies. Earn trophies based on time holding a tower.

Strategy:

When the match starts, attack a tower that has not been hit, with 1 energy so we get it. After that, if you see another, hit it with 1 so we get it. After all five are claimed, relax. Wait for an enemy response. If they come in and hit the rock tower for 130k, we will respond in force and take it back. But only enough to take it back.

Save your energy during this event. Seriously, we need to react to what happens throughout the match. Sometimes they will hit one tower for 1 million and leave, sometimes they will hit all towers for a little bit.

The key to winning Dominion is to have the most towers for the most time.

If we are doing good 20 minutes before end of match, go ahead and spend your energy attacking your zodiac tower or whatever.
